Yeah, that's definitely not a word in Japanese. Maybe she was going for 'genuine existing'? Actually, I have no idea what she was going for, that is a super confusing kanji combo.

Majority =|= "overwhelmingly"

I wasn't disputing your point that the majority of white women vote Republican. I was disputing your word choice- i.e. "overwhelmingly".

Married white women generally vote for Republicans. Unmarried white women generally vote for Democrats. And even then around 42 percent of white women as a whole voted for Obama in the last election, compared to only 35 percent of white men.

Yes, the cool mom is more about that bullshit idea of "having it all" and a completely separate from the cool girl to me.

I'm having a hard time telling if you mean this or if you've master some grand master level of sarcasm.

I've always found that the main difference is whether you're on of those people who like to pretend that her interests = her personality (spoiler alert: that's not how personality works).

That's really not what she said. It's not like she's responding to constructive criticism from Martha* here. Martha kind of went all in on Goop for no reason, with no real valid criticism**, on a question that she could have easily brushed off. It definitely says more about Martha's personality than anything.

Ah okay, fair question. Harvard is a very big name institution in pretty much every developed country on earth at this point. So, I could see someone with (assumed) mental issues fixating on it, regardless of any actual connection with the university.

There are POCs in Germany, what exactly are you confused about?

Yes? It depends on the district & her level of seniority, but it's definitely possible. A lot of Maryland is basically a suburb of DC or Baltimore & a few of those suburbs are quite affluent. You could easily make $70-80k after 10-15 years of continuous service in some of those districts.

Depends on how much she an her husband make from their actual salaries. Let's assume that they're making about $75k each, they have no other income (e.g. investments, etc.), and are filing jointly. Then on their gross income of $1,150,000 they'll pay $402,153 in taxes (~35%), leaving them with $747,847. Then after…

I'm pretty sure "G-rated" and "slashfic" are mutually exclusive and that the latter isn't something you'd want to use to describe a playdate.

THAT HAIR, THOUGH!

I pay for Spotify Premium & occasionally purchase music on iTune, because I don't really have the time or the motivation to pirate music. When I was a student with lots of free time and limited cash, I definitely pirated music every now and then. But now that I'm working full-time & earn a respectable income, it…

There are a lot of people who think that being a vegetarian is more expensive, which definitely amazes me. The vegetarian dishes are the cheapest one on every restaurant menu. Do they think that's because the restaurant feels sorry for us? Not that maybe the raw inputs into those dishes are cheaper? The only thing I…

Well, your back muscles are a lot larger in general than your triceps. So, for the vast majority of people, the farther apart your arms are the easier a push up is going to be. It's still impressive that she can do that many, though.

If they have nothing in their profile then ask them a question. It's not that hard. A message reading, "Hey, you seem pretty cool. Are you originally from [insert city]?" is better than 95% of the messages most women will receive.

I think it depends on 1) how long is "a few months"; 2) how long did you date; and 3) were you friends before you dated.

I feel like you're being a little too nice to the straight guys not getting any replies, because there are definitely some less pleasant questions those guys need to ask themselves, based on my own experience as a woman who receives lot of messages but rarely responds:
